Available Produce, Herbs & Flowers

Our produce is on the menu at local restaurants including Heirloom, Harbour, Cafe Azafran and Thompson Island.

Flower and Basil Plants for your Home Gardens

Our remaining spring plants include Genovese basil and a colorful selection of flowers for garden beds, borders, containers and cutting gardens. All plants are grown in Vermont Compost Company potting soil and are in excellent condition.

Herbs

• Genovese Basil (DMR – Downy Mildew Resistant) — Authentic flavor and appearance. This Genovese-type basil is compact, but highly productive.

Flowers

• Gomphrena — In mixed colors. This is a lovely heat-loving annual that produces vibrant, papery, globe-shaped blooms in shades of pink, purple, magenta, and white. Highly drought-tolerant and pest-resistant, it thrives in the summer sun and is a popular “cut and come again” flower for fresh or dried floral arrangements.
• Zahara Zinnias — An easy-to-grow choice for cheerful color in the garden or pots. These were bred for powdery mildew resistance and long-lasting color for landscapes and garden beds.
• Cut n’ Come Again Zinnias — Bright blooms in warm colors. Shortest of the cutting zinnias we grow, it will grow just to about 2 feet and is a better “fit” for many flower beds.
• Benary Giant Cutting Zinnias (very tall, mixed) — Tall, vibrant blooms ideal for cutting gardens and long-lasting arrangements.
• Lemondrop Marigolds — Every gardener will delight in this adorable, sunny yellow, petite flower on small, compact plants. Lemon Drop adds a bright spot of color to the front of the bed, patio containers, and window boxes.

Directions

Hattie’s Garden is at 31341 Kendale Rd in Lewes, about 3 miles from Plantation Road via Robinsonville Rd or Beaver Dam Rd (Rt. 23 South).

Kendale Rd is 0.6 miles long between Robinsonville and Beaver Dam. The house is the fifth on the left from Beaver Dam, with a large wooden fence and purple trim.

Park in the gravel area facing the fence. If you don’t see me, feel free to toot your horn — I may be in the garage or garden.
